Power Steering

[Jayson5150]

What vehicles can the power steering pump, brackets and box can be scavenged to fit the early bronco? I know(assume) to find the same engine size. But would an F-100/150 bolt in? or are there modifications to be made?

The answer to your question depends on what year EB you have and weather or not you have an I6 or V8. If you have a 66-75 (with a V8) the the 73-75 PS unit will bolt directly in with a little inner fender, inner grill & radiator modification if it is a pre 72 1/2 vehicle. If you have the 72 1/2 through 75 EB then it will bolt directly in w/out any cutting mods. If you have a 76 or 77 then you need a 76-77 PS system. The reason for this is the 76-77 used a different steering linkage than 66-75. That is the easiest PS mod out there, no matter what anyone else says. It is a direct bolt in application. The truck box is a little more difficult, but less expensive because most of the EB PS systems have been robbed already, but you can find them. I don't know how to adapt it for the inline 6 engine.
